So me and others at least in the apd have been fed up with doing a federal event every 25 minutes. We are fighting against groups who carry rpgs with 20 rockets mar 10s zafirs and anything else u could think of so armour waives are voided. Were all fighintg who some of the better/sus players on the server so mere bots like me have no chance of really ever winning so some of us have thought of reducing the amount federal events that can be done a restart or increase the time in between feds so its not just a constant thing maybe something like a 45-60minute cooldown in-between feds Because realistically by the time we chase gold trucks or wave into a rebel for another 10 mins after bomb has blown they are able to do another fed in 15 to 10 minutes. Id appreciate opinions from anyone or ideas on smtg to not just make BW and Reserve spam. Hope you all had a merry Christmas or happy holiday .

Federal events are pretty much the only thing that is fun to do on the server rn for older/higher skill players. A higher cooldown would probably cause feds to be done by only 1 group and eliminate the chance for others. Would be interested to see statistics on average feds done per restart, who does them and the success rates of the respective groups. In regards to spending time chasing after the event is over, you aren't required to do that and you get more of a break if you win. Maybe the APD should implement some Federal Event trainings to help with skill disparities and reward officers for attending or performing well in them.

I usually hold back, but bruh, you are equal part the biggest ArmA 3 Karen and the most dented individual on the server. You’re a grown ass man like I just can’t you run your gang like any other ArmA dent who goes wild with any form of power and then complain about bias and corruption with staff everytime something doesn’t go your way truly a modern comedy. 

when rafa makes an agreeable statement it shows the extreme idiocy of the person on the opposite side of the argument

There is no such change as a gambling loss. What you have gained is knowledge and eventually money. Never stop gambling, get kids to gamble. Gambling for kids initiative!

I was on medic and I was flying over the fed and watched aegis admin reviving in the dome. Also they teleported a gold truck and changed it with an empty one.... This abuse is over keep posting. 

I saw AEGIS spawn in 2 tempests at gold trader with no fed going on and sell gold. I think @ Aaron_BAM  has the video

Funny vid lil bro, keep it up!

Unfortunately that medic lost his 5 mil loadout when you rdmed him. Next time you make a mistake just comp the 5 mil.

Honestly, after much thought and reading these replies I don think this is a solution. I actually just got into this conversation earlier with someone.

 

The problem isnt that staff have too much money and they just wipe everyone (because truthfully that isnt it) it is that they dont know when to stop.

They dont understand the line. Sure, being an administrator is something Olympus preaches "anyone" can work for but that also isnt the case. Different day tho....

A perk of being an admin is unlimited money. I think it is what it is. There does have to be incentive to things just how there is lots of incentive to Sr faction positions. Everything has some form of incentive. However, I think that with incentives should come restrictions. Lets look at @ Mako as a prime example. Go and look at HIS gang he created. I linked it for easy access. This gang is FILLED with countless staff members (both administrative and non administrative) which is truly what the problem is. In my eyes, the solution to this problem of never ending money with OP kits is not restricting their unlimited money but more-so their game mechanics. There is absolutely 0 reason that there needs to be a gang with this many staff members. That gang wins everything and dominates the server and lets face it- its because they have the money to buy whatever they want. I think there needs to be some form of restriction on how many staff can be in a gang or some sort of accountability with that many of them. I dont understand how Mako can own and operate his own gang where all of the higher people are staff? It literally is a breeding ground for a specific friend group of the server. 

 

Also if you havent noticed, there is a certain group of people in this server who always play together and have some weird thing going on and a lot of it is in that gang. There is 0 reason that there should be that many high ranks in that gang. Remember earlier when I said "Olympus preaches "anyone" can work for ranks" that is false. If you do not know at least 3+ of the people in this gang and play with them on a daily basis, you will go nowhere in this server. So unfortunately @ Farrel you dont get a say anymore in what happens this wont change. Its because you arent a part of their little circle jerk they got going.

 

Restrict what staff can do if they do have the incentive to spawn unlimited money, or HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. @ Mako you are literally supposed to be a leader and holding these people accountable but somehow you always become the center of attention when stuff like this comes up? All of the other admins too, like what are yall doing? When topics like this get created its just a battle of why you deserve the unlimited money but not "oh let me not forget where I came from and maybe lets try to find a middle ground" Did anyone else notice that? With what @ Stray :) said about Mako using his personal money, okay that is understandable but if that is true how are regular users supposed to actually trust that. He supposedly has been "using his own money" for god knows how long? When does he actually run out of "his own money" like I am just having a hard time understanding. If it actually has been his money all along, then so be it maybe he doesnt need restrictions? MAYBE a solution is that if staff want the ability to have game mechanics not limited they choose to not have unlimited money? Or if they want the money they get limitations? 1 being they cannot be X rank in a gang or something. Or that there can only be X staff members in a gang.

 

There should be some sort of middle ground the community can agree on.

Edit: To add on to what I said, the reason I dont think unlimited money is the issue is because they have lots of staff points as noble said to get more money. So honestly, that is not the solution here I think we can all agree. There needs to be other ideas brought up besides removing unlimted money.

They are the only gang that can log in 10+ people and even when they do half the people aren't even in the gang. I wouldn't say they dominate everything. Most of them, that are not even staff, are old players with a lot of money and rare items saved up over the years. I don't think I've ever seen someone become a staff member because they were in the same gang as an admin, this isn't asylum. The stats page is free to look at and you can easily see how many hours, apd earnings, drugs sold, etc that anyone has. You spent who knows how long typing that wall of text, but didn't look on the stats page once .

Anyone who has ever use any kid of scripts or pulldowns should be permed and never unpermed with 0 exceptions.

How many players has this server already lost because they get tired of fighting blantantly obvious hackers every time they log in, and nothing is done about it?  Or worse, they get unbanned and continue blatantly doing it.

These pulldown users have been ruining the game for years. Unban the cheaters, but keep the pulldown users banned.

If a man can't lay in a wall for 13 seconds, what is left on this server?

+1

Seems pointless without changing the war point shop or converting everyone's war points to money.

Making them sell for more but process at the same speed would likely be the best improvement to increase player interaction as people would be at the zone longer than the opposite scenario.

Such a great point Lucien. This especially applies to illegal runs where time for the APD to spot and catch you is an essential part of the Civ/Cop balance. Greater profits of illegal goods incentivizes civilians to do drug runs and makes the server more interesting for the cops as well. I believe that legal runs should still be viable, but the difference between illegal and legal needs to be greater. I lean towards greatly buffing illegal runs rather than nerfing legal and slightly buffing illegal. If you want a major difference you need a major change.

don't forget to thank the bus driver.
